Ableton.

I have bin playing around with the music production software ableton. Not only can you produce music you can also edit videos. The top screenshot shows a loop of the kicks at 128 bpm. The bottom one is the recorded bars of music.

green screen.

We recently tried green screening for the first time. unfortunately the video won't upload but i learnt a lot in after effects and how to create a successful green screen animation. the animation consisted of me jamie and terry going along in a 3d. it was very funny to do.

Who can save us?!

Test 3D Walk Cycle Complete.

 This is a screenshot of Gabebot standing next to skyscrapers.

 I used 3 stage lights and made the floor material red glass.

I found this walk cycle to be a bit tricky but eventually i have managed to get a working one. I will take what i have learnt from this and improve on my mistakes next time i create a 3D character walk cycle.

3D Rigging.

This was my second attempt at rigging a 3D character. I found it extremely complicated at first but with determination (and help) I managed to 'rig it'.  The character had to be done pretty quick. Its a robot if you couldnt tell.
